Anybody remember when the price went up and you thought shit I should have bought more coins while they were cheap...

... well now you can !

Whenever price is high all we can think is: I would do anything to have them $50 cheaper than they are now.

*price falls $50*

OMG I wish I'd sodl when the price was $50 higher than it is now.

I'm outta here

Oh.. and one more thing that is probably a psychological problem for you is that you seem to be viewing your interactions here on the interwebs as some kind of competition, including these recent posts with me.  There may be some posters who are competing, but I am NOT one of them..    So step back from the keyboard, sir, ma'am or bot!!!!!!   Cheesy

Heh I posted that when I got bored waiting for a reply  Roll Eyes I can't believe you'd even say something about that... I guess that is probably a psychological problem for you... LOL!
You step away from the keyboard bulltard...  Roll Eyes
Again, you do NOT seem to be saying anything new, here.  You are merely taking the lines that I used that were directed towards you, and then directing the lines towards me.  Seems like you are running on pure emotion rather than reason.  Maybe on the positive shows that you are a human rather than a bot...?   And, if you are a bot, you are sure seeming to be an emotional one.. that is lashing out and grasping at straws....   Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

Because there's really nothing to talk about that... LOL! I can't believe you'd even react with my exit phrase/image.. LOL!
I guess it's probably some sort of a psychological problem.. You'd always find a reason to slap your long-winded post.  Roll Eyes
I wouldn't be surprised if we later end up with you lecturing me about my grammatical errors.  Roll Eyes

You wouldn't be surprised if I were to attempt to correct your grammar because again you are engaging in what seems to be pure speculation that has little to no basis in reality.  I hope that your attempts to forecast the price direction of BTC are better than your whimsical attempts to analyze and predict the personalities and behaviors of pseudo-anonymous persons on the internet?
Well based on how you react with a single image and a three word sentence, and how it ended up with something like "psychological problem", "competition", "bot", "emotion", etc. , there's a possibility that we end up with that since you already mentioned about my sentences not comprehensible  Roll Eyes
There seems to be quite a bit stream of consciousness going on here, and loose connections, and seems like you are getting a bit worked up over this, at least to the extent that your sentences are NOT really comprehensible in a self-contained manner, but hinge on a form of fill-in-the-blank puzzle.
I think you have pretty much summed it up.  Your posts go on a variety of stream-of-consciousness attempts to connect a large variety of ideas by stringing words together and then making strained connections between such words.  

It causes me to believe that your level of comprehension remains somewhat at the word level, rather than at the sentence level.  As you improve with your comprehension abilities, you should, hopefully, be able to progress to the paragraph level and then page and then chapter and then book...   Not everyone has comprehension ability or learns comprehension skills; however, hopefully, NOW that I have pointed this out to you, possibly, you will be able to take action to work on these skills.

Hopefully, you will improve with some of your abilities, but I do NOT really have much hope to assist you in the near-term future.. because, as I said earlier, developing skills can take time..

NONETHELESS, i will attempt to pay attention to some of your posts to verify whether there is any potential for coherence and/or comment(s) from me.
I am really amazed at how this long conversation started with just the image and three word sentence I posted Roll Eyes
Even the last one sentence comment I made produced a reply which is almost half as long as an essay  Grin
I guess I should explain things clearly to end this conversation.

I've been wondering if it's the post I made which is incomprehensible or it's just you who is a little bit slow in understanding things.
Let's check where it started. From the start, you've been lecturing me about how bad name-calling is and how you dislike such behavior. You talked to me because I called someone a "bulltard". Unfortunately, I was able to remember a similar situation where someone was calling me names and you were also present at that time.
Link
From that, I realized that you:
a) are probably a bulltard since you agree with their post and got butthurt when I mentioned "THOSE bulltards" from my original post
b)were just pretending that you are so concerned about name-calling since you just ignored those guy's behavior
I was actually expecting the conversation to end there but still, you started posting unnecessary post like trying to justify your behavior, btc price claims, mom's basement, pettiness etc. Link
Then I replied with this Link
I believe there's nothing incomprehensible with that but you posted this.Link

Link
I think that's pretty easy to understand so that will be the last time I'll attempt to reply with a very long post.

I live in South East Asia, I live on around $2000 a month. That's in a nice villa, with a nice car, and I eat out at least 2x a day (in western restaurants not local food)

in Europe my lifestyle would eat 90% of my income, over here I save >75% of my income.

In most of US, you wouldn't be able to afford your lifestyle, period.  I lived on $2k a month (NYC) and trust me, there was no talk of "villas" or saving Cheesy

Yeah, I lived in NYC, my friend's gym membership in manhattan was $300 a month.



2k$/month even after tax sets you for a very poor and stressing life in a big rich western city

2k$/month + 2k$/month for your girlfriend all after tax may start paying you a kind of confortable life

I never said I make 2k a month, i said I live off 2k a month and I save more than 75% of my income.

very nice

Not the point. Maybe users will adopt Bitcoin, maybe they won't.

I'm simply pointing out the 'moving goalposts' type responses: A year ago, it was more or less considered a fact by the skeptics that merchants and payment processors (like Paypal) would never adopt Bitcoin. If I have a bit more time, I'll go dig out the posts.

Turns out, that wasn't the case. Merchant adoption is actually picking up quite nicely. Paypal getting on board (cautiously, but still) is pretty big. So now the new argument is: "Okay, so maybe *merchants* are interested, but consumers simply don't care."

Right now, I tend to agree  - user adoption is lagging behind.

What I don't agree with however is the notion that it needs to stay like that, for some rock solid logical reason ("fees will always be higher" etc.).

To me it simply looks like we took one major step in the right direction (merchant adoption, payment options), which means one major risk factor is removed (that you can't spend bitcoins). The future will tell if and how user adoption will kick. Might take some additional incentives, or improved security for users, or maybe just better exchanges, but there's no coherent reason why user adoption cannot happen, imo.

Good post. You look at the past and predict the future.

Bitcoin ecosystem is growing. The price now may be low to some (I say "some" because a number got in during single digit) but all the events had pointed that it is going to get larger. Some in this forum advise to get away from bitcoin and come back a year later. That is good advice especially to those who can't handle emotionally.

For all the bears who think that 2013 was an unrecoverable bubble, please identify another bubble where 9 months after the pop the underlying fundamentals are better than it was during the bubble.

Our situation is simply that a lot of miners and short/medium-term speculative investment have coins that need to be moved to strong hands.  There is simply a reservoir of coins (which is increasing by 3600 per day) that need to be moved before we can make significant moves upwards.  Bitcoin is so useful that someday this reservoir is gonna run dry.


I seem to remember there was a strong argument on this forum that hoarding coins (nice euphemism "strong hands") is bad for BTC in the long run.  What you are essentially advocating is the same thing Shroomskit constantly proposes: nobody sells until the price reaches a level which enables laggard early-adopters to become super-rich.

Why would everyone do this?

I don't. Don't be an idiot and make things up like that.
I think it's best if people keep some coins and use the rest to stimulate a healthy Bitcoin community.

My thought have been that I would use some of the extra cash flow for frequent traveling.. but it never hurts to have a little extra cash flow (even for savings purposes).. and I anticipate needing to return to the states about two times a year which is NOT cheap... . at least maybe until I make sure most of my matters/affairs in the states are settled...  and the reality may be that it will NOT be completely feasible to sever from the USA business.. .. still contemplating options in that regard.. I am actually in my late 40s, so NOT a spring chicken, but pretty decent energy and health.. Knock on wood.




I still travel a little, but to be honest I was in the forces and I lived in 4 countries before I turned 18. I've seen a lot of the world, there aren't too many places I fancy going left.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"

Currently, I have a pretty steady $2500 to $3000 per month of mostly passive income (investment related so does NOT take too much time to manage); however, I have an ongoing business that I am having some troubles with keeping it completely operating on its own (thus takes way too much of my time, without any additional payoff for the time i spend, except perhaps to lessen various potential liabilities), and I am considering that it could be better to figure out a way to completely sever from the business... because I am ready to move to the next stage.... and to spend my time in more leisure activities.. accordingly, your response makes me a little anxious about moving on...

Well, in any event, I have to think practically and I cannot just cut my business issues... so I gotta work them out... hopefully, sooner rather than later...  Embarrassed

I have a wife, if you're single you could half that or more easily.

Honestly I could live off $500-750 a month by myself, she's the one who insists on the villa + car. I'd be happy with a condo and a motorbike.

Theres a big difference between the east and west in Europe. I live in Western Europe, and here 2000 USD is what you would get from the government if you don't have a job, so that would put you right in the absolute bottom of the society. You would not be able to have a car or eat out at all, all your money would go to pay the rent of your tiny 2 room apartment and the essentials for living.

Hey MrPiggles, what country in South East Asia are you talking about and what are the downsides that you didn't mention?

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"


I have some business issues in the US of A that I am trying to get in order - otherwise I am considering various ways to become location independent.  Currently, I am attracted to south east asia, more than europe - and part of my thinking is that I can live a lot better on a lot less (accordingly, live well within my means, and continue to accumulate wealth with a mostly passive income).  Potentially, later in life, I will be able to travel and live in more expensive areas...... Well, anyhow, this is more of a work of progress than anything set in stone...

Further, I am anticipating that there are going to be a lot of ongoing wishy-washy developments and adjustments when it comes to various tax treatments of BTC... from what I understand, Americans traveling abroad would NOT be required to count the gains of their spent BTC, so long as those BTC are spent overseas.

Regarding number of merchants, the more the better, and regarding spending, there are a lot of mixed blessings about that, and the USA, as most of us already realize, has one of the worst spending records - and some of the american consumerism habits are spreading to other areas around the world... NO simple solutions there when it comes to inequality and wasteful spending while some people are barely able to scratch by meager livings others are living wastefully high on the hog.  Seems to be a topic beyond the scope of this thread (though this thread seems to be fairly tolerant of a variety of topics so long as they are anywhere remotely connected to BTC walls - and even then... ooofffffta...).   Cheesy

I think we have a lot in common, I became "location independent" about 2 years ago now.
